“I believe in God, Your Eminence. And in God alone. Which is why I don’t share your alarm at the idea of a long Conclave—or even a schism, come to that. Who knows? Perhaps that is what God wants. It would explain why our Conclave is proving to be such a conundrum that even you can’t solve it.”
Again, the blief that God controlss what men do. Almost fatlistic.
